MADE IN FRANCE
The manufacturer does not incur any responsability regarding damages to both objects and persons
that result from an incorrect and/or dangerous use of the machine.
MAINTENANCE / RECOMMENDATIONS
• Maintenance should only be carried out by a qualified person. Annual maintenance is recommended.
• Ensure the machine is unplugged from the mains, and wait for two minutes before carrying out main-
tenance work. DANGER High Voltage and Currents inside the machine.
• Remove the casing 2 or 3 times a year to remove any excess dust. Take this opportunity to have the
electrical connections checked by a qualified person, with an insulated tool.
• Regularly check the condition of the power supply cable. If the power cable is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its after sales service or an equally qualified person.
• Ensure the ventilation holes of the device are not blocked to allow adequate air circulation.
• Do not use this equipment to thaw pipes, to charge batteries, or to start any engine.
INSTALLATION – PRODUCT OPERATION
Only qualified personnel authorized by the manufacturer should perform the installation of the welding equipment.
During set up, the operator must ensure that the machine is unplugged. Connecting generators in a series or a parallel
circuit is forbidden.
HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
The 80P, 130P, 160P, 200P are Inverter technology based welding machines, portable, single phase, fan cooled, for
electrode welding (MMA) in direct current output(DC). These machines can weld all types of electrodes : rutile, basic/
low hydrogen (except 80P), stainless and cast iron. They're protected to work with generators (230 V +- 15%).
POWER SUPPLY – STARTING UP
• This hardware is supplied wih a 16A plug, type CEE7/7 (Standard 13A UK plug in the United Kingdom). The machine
must be connected to a socket WITH earth 230V (50 – 60 Hz). The absorbed effective current (I1eff) is displayed on the
machine, for optimal use. Check that the power supply and its protection (fuse and/or circuit breaker) are compatible
with the current needed by the machine. In some countries, it may be necessary to change the plug to allow the use
at maximum settings. Prefer a 20A socket for the 130P, 25 A for the 160P and 32A for the 200P in intensive use. The
device must be positioned so that the socket is always accessible.
• Starting the 80P, 130P, 160P et 200P is done by positionning the switch on the desired current value (the sleep mode
corresponds to the « » value of the potentiometer).
CONNECTION ON A GENERATOR
The machine can work with generators as long as the auxiliary power matches these requirements :
- The voltage must be AC, always set as specified, and the peak voltage below 400V,
- The frequency must be between 50 and 60 Hz.
It is imperative to check these requirements as several generators generate high voltage peaks that can damage these
machines.
MMA WELDING (ELECTRODE)
CONNECTIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
• Connect the cables, electrode holder and earth clamp in the connectors,
• Respect the welding polarity and required current indicated on the electrodes boxes,
• Remove the electrode from the electrode holder when the machine is not in use.
• Your machine has 3 features exclusive to Inverters :
- Hot Start delivers initial overcurrent to facilitate easy arc striking.
- Arc Force adjusts the arc voltage to compensate for the arc length increasing/decreasing
- Anti-Sticking technology prevents your electrode sticking to the work piece
TIG WELDING WITH INERT GAS (TIG MODE DC)
These machines can weld DC TIG with scratch start .
